Act 229 Mexico is too weak(1/2)
Although the green-backed dollar credit currency reform has been reformed, the money supply in the north has increased significantly.
The federal government has the ability and funds to pay for all procurement activities, but the money has not really flowed to the end of the market.
Therefore, in the vast central and western towns, a large number of people were unable to take out two dollars of "redeem money", so they were dragged to the battlefield and started fighting after only one week of training.
The war scenes these people faced were not at all easy than their predecessors, and even worse.
Because every veteran is precious.
Therefore, in some battles destined to be cannon fodder, these recruits always took the lead.
However, while they died in large numbers, a large number of veterans were born.
Such a large amount of sand-drawing pattern is destined to be despised, but it is very useful.
After all, the northern Federation has a total population of 20 million. Even if one person is mobilized by twenty people, it still has a size of one million.
Including a few black slaves in the south, there are only nine million people.
Therefore, even if the north uses purely human life, it has the opportunity to defeat the south.
Even at this time, the northern generals had already believed that the southern army had entered a state of exhaustion.
What kind of effective defense can they defend if the sea supply line is blocked?
Could it be that you should use your head to defend?
The general immediately put down his telescope and ordered to the adjutant, "Let the recruit company attack!"
Everything in the recruit company is very new.
Not only are the soldiers very new, but also all kinds of weapons and equipment very new.
And these new things are about to hit the guys in the south.
The adjutant conveys the order.
The recruits formed a dense formation, split out from the large team, and headed towards the southern army in the distance.
The gap between the recruits was very small. They moved about 300 meters before the southern army began to hold up firearms and planned to carry out a round of shooting.
Although such a dense formation does not have any technical content, it is very useful.
Especially, if you have excellent weapons.
If you can use firepower to suppress the opponent outside the range of the opponent.
However, the distance of 300 meters is not very safe.
Although the opponent's bullet may lose its power at this distance.
However, in addition to these, there are also shell attacks.
In this era, shells are by no means as simple as falling from a distance and smashing a pit on the ground.
The shells seemed to be slowly floating over from a distance. Often, before the people in the team were paid attention, they landed on the ground and bounced up again. After several bounces, they finally reaped a large amount of life.
Even at this time, escaping is useless.
Because there is no place to escape.
In the case of dense formations, there are people on the left and people on the right, there are people in front and behind.
In this case, what can you do?
You can't do anything.
I can only hope that my luck is not too bad.
Or, pray to God to let others see him.
As for why the formation is not loosened, this is because for new recruits, loose formation is really difficult to manage.
Anyway, a group of people died, and the rear could immediately add soldiers. Why do you have to feel sorry for these soldiers?
On the contrary, if the war is won, the officer who is the commander can receive a reward.
Today's recruit team, like the previous recruit team, started round after round of shooting three hundred meters away.
However, it is strange that the southern army opposite did not push out their cannons, and it seemed that there was no movement.
While the recruit commander was still confused, he suddenly saw a small black thing, acting in a parabolic manner, and landed on them.
This small thing did not reap life like a cannonball.
But not long after it landed on the ground, the flowers exploded with a "bang".
While the smell of blood was floating in the air, unknown parts of the body also fell like parabola.
This is - grenade!
The commander searched for the list of weapons in his mind, and finally, a few seconds later, he found the corresponding weapon.
That's right, it's a grenade!
But, how could there be a grenade on the opposite side?
The technological level of the southerners can only cast some cannons at most.
As for things like howitzers, they may not be able to do them.
However, they can make gun mounts, but they can't make gun shells.
Even if it is barely made, the number will not be large.
And for wars that consume a lot of ammunition every day, without yield means useless.
Just when the commander thought so.
I saw a row of dense light spots suddenly appearing above the sky.
Not waiting for him to react.
The recruits who were shooting in the long three rows were hit by the grenade rain.
If it is just hit by these small things, it's okay.
The most important thing is the explosion that follows.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
...
"Bang!"
Countless explosions, unrecognizable explosions.
The first decision made by the recruit commander was to give up the recruit company in front of him and retreat to the rear first.
When he confirmed that he had retreated to a safe distance, he looked back and took out his telescope and saw some people touching the south between the smoke and dust.
They were not very close to each other, and they started shooting at a relatively far place.
However, their shooting was not neat and very sparse.
But the sparse gunfire made the new commander feel chilled all over.
It seemed like he was back when he was a newcomer.
That's not long since now, probably half a year ago.
At that time, the southern army, which had relatively high-quality weapons, was a nightmare for the soldiers in the north.
Those veterans from the south never lined up in dense formations and carried out useless shooting.
Instead, they divided into groups after groups, performing slow and effective shooting in groups.
The feeling of someone being shot whenever a gunshot occurs is really annoying.
However, in the following months, there have been fewer and fewer such "sharpshooters".
This is not the South’s veterans have become fewer.
But because the ammunition in the south is no longer available.
Excellent troops and excellent combat effectiveness.
It has never been a soldier's own business. It represents a series of comprehensive strength from equipment to logistics and then to financial resources.
Because the supply lines on the same are blocked, they have no way to replenish high-quality supplies from Britain and France.
You can only make your own supplies.
The supplies made by yourself have large errors and insufficient accuracy.
No matter the performance, it has plummeted.
